Nutrition plays a major role in the overall health, longevity, and quality of life of each person, from infancy to elderly. Education and training for most health-care providers to deliver nutrition care to patients have been inadequate and on the decline in the past several decades. This gap needs to be addressed by increasing the knowledge, confidence, and abilities of health-care professionals to deliver nutrition care and work as an interprofessional team for patients. Having a registered dietitian nutritionist as part of the interprofessional team can lead to better-coordinated care, using nutrition at the forefront. We describe the issues with a disparity in online nutrition-focused continuing professional development (CPD) and propose an avenue and strategy to use CPD to deliver nutrition education and training to providers, ultimately to boost interprofessional collaboration.
营养在每个人的整体健康、长寿和生活质量中起着重要作用，从婴儿期到老年期都是如此。在过去几十年中，大多数医疗保健提供者提供营养护理的教育和培训一直不足且在下降。为了弥合这一差距，需要提高医疗保健专业人员提供营养护理和作为跨专业团队为患者服务的知识、信心和能力。让注册营养师成为跨专业团队的一员，可以更好地协调护理工作，将营养置于首位。我们描述了在线以营养为重点的持续专业发展（CPD）方面的差距问题，并提出了一条途径和策略，利用 CPD 为提供者提供营养教育和培训，最终促进跨专业合作。
